Best Turbo Timer/ Blow off valve
 
Im tring to keep my as stock as possable but at the same time I want to put parts on it that will increace the life of the motor, Im thinking about the HKS Type 1 turbo timer, and the Super Sequnical blow off valve for it what are your opions?

IMO, neither of those are going to help with increasing your engine's life.

If you want to change something to help your engine, look at getting a Downpipe, an aftermarket radiator, fuel filter changeand replace all your coolant lines.

how does a downpipe help increas engine life? when i add it my downpipe it just made the car smell like ass and give more hp

the downpipe takes away a lot of the heat. It also eliminates the first cat right?

i have a blitz dual turbo timer, its great because it also has a boost reading.

Downpipe is for reliablilty!!
So if it's more reliable, then it'll last longer...

You newb. Anyways, as vrmmmpshhh says about the dp, it'll increase engine life.

Yes the downpipe will replace the pre-cat therefore less heat under the hood.

Blitz ALL the way.

I would also do a search about turbo timers....many people feels that it does nothing to extend the life of the engine....

a DP I think is a must....also it WON'T smell up your exhaust, it is primarily there for cold starts, once your main cat is warmed up it should be identical to stock
